Would you eat a 6-course meal blindfolded?

Let your taste buds do the exploring

Touch the shelled seed of a cashew, and once opened, its delicate, discernable texture gives it away, while the bitter, rich scent of coffee awakens any connoisseur (read addict), then, a freshly squeezed lemon gives a tangy punch to most summer drinks… and ultimately the saccharine taste of milk chocolate delights most. Now imagine relying solely on these four senses through a meal – take away the basic sense of sight, and the inability to #Insta your meal instantly – and you’re left with the chance to truly taste your food. And that’s exactly what Mumbai restaurant, Masque has in mind for its diners on Friday, June 9.

Say hello to Dialogue in the Dark, where Masque in collaboration with SoHo Wine Club offers diners the chance to sit through a 6 course-tasting menu led by its head chef Prateek Sadhu, paired with a selection of curated wines by SoHo Wine Club. Sadhu explains, “Your first interaction with a dish is almost always visual— take that away, and you’re at the mercy of the rest of your senses.” And while food takes centre stage, fear not, the dishes are paired with a selection of wine. Sonal Holland, founder of SohoWine club seconds Sadhu’s logic, “In wine tasting, the aromatic expression of a wine is of prime importance and telling of what is to come on the palate. Blind-tasting of wines then, is both exciting and explorative.”

Are you ready to play blindman’s bluff, this time with your meal? We know we’d love to have this dialogue in the dark.

The dinner will be held on Friday, 9th June 2017 and offers 7.30 and 10:00 pm seating options. Call in advance for reservations
